Prayer: Master of the Universe

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, please perform a miracle and a wonder with me, a wonder for life, and may I merit to defeat the klipah (husk) of Haman Amalek = dollar = 240, and may I merit clapping 484 hands 100 and dancing 376 of holiness 419 = 1279, and through this may I merit intellect 355 of holiness 419 + 1 = 1279, and to learn Torah day and night, and to learn Shas, Likutey Moharan, the weekly Torah portion, Likutey Tefillos, and Likutey Halachos.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, all the war and the victory over the Gid HaNasheh (the sciatic nerve) is achieved only through song and dance, which make the heels jump higher and higher. Please Hashem, grant me the merit to win the war for all generations, for even when Mashiach comes they will join in song and dance, as this is the only power that can awaken the Jewish people to teshuvah (repentance), and subdue the angel of Esau. This is why Jacob went back for small jugs, all in order to gather all the sparks, and to subdue Esau completely, and everything is through song and dance. Through this, we rectify the blemish that Jacob did not know how to rectify, until Isaiah the prophet came and said "Sing to Hashem," for through song and dance one emerges from the blemish of the Gid HaNasheh, which is the most terrible blemish, and only through song and dance is it possible to rectify this.

Master of the Universe, grant me a complete healing quickly, and may I merit to be included in the heart of the world, in the heart of our holy Rebbe [Rebbe Nachman], and may I merit that my holy heart will be like the heart in the story of the third day [of the Seven Beggars], which constantly yearns for the spring. May I always merit to receive a new day from the stuttering beggar, and every day may I merit to be like King David, peace be upon him, who merited in the merit of the holy melodies to draw down entirely new vitality every single day. May I merit to be like King Hezekiah, who, after a decree of death was already upon him, Heaven forbid, not upon us, merited to sweeten it completely. And not only that, but the sun moved backward ten hours, and the angel of Hashem went out and struck the entire camp of Assyria, two hundred and sixty thousand myriads minus one (2,600,000,000 - 1), and then he promised Hashem: "Hashem will save me, and we will play my melodies all the days of our lives in the House of Hashem" (Isaiah 38:20). And I promise You, Hashem, blessed be He, that I will never get angry again; rather, I will merit all the days of my life to play holy melodies for You at every moment and hour. So too, may You now heal me with an eternal healing from now and forever, and from now on may I never be sick again, Heaven forbid.

Master of the Universe, grant me the ten types of song that King David, peace be upon him, revealed: 'And I will play my melodies in the House of Hashem all the days of my life.' And all the days of my life shall be only song, melody, and music. By the power of the seventh beggar who had no legs, may I merit to dance all the days of my life without ceasing and without stopping for a second, and through this may all my sins be forgiven from the day I gained awareness until now, and may all the sins be transformed into merits. May I merit, in the merit of our holy Rebbe, to attain holy intellect and knowledge, and to all the 13 attributes of the holy beard, which are "God, merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness and truth, keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin, and cleansing." May I merit the attribute of absolute truth, and may I 'speak truth in my heart,' and may no word of falsehood ever leave my mouth. May I merit that all my thoughts, musings, and meditations will always be only upon You, as it is written, "Singers and dancers alike, all my wellsprings are in You." May I merit to cry and shout out to the spring flowing from the mountain, which is the river flowing from Eden, from the tziyun (gravesite) of our holy Rebbe, and through this may I merit "a well of living water, flowing from Lebanon," and may all the "seven pipes" drawn from the Flowing Brook, the Source of Wisdom, be bestowed upon me. May I merit, in the merit of this holy and awesome tziyun, to attain complete holy knowledge, and to a wondrous settled mind (yishuv hadaas), which is the true reward of each and every person, as it is written, "Your reward is very great" (שכרך הרבה מאד), which has the numerical value of 'settled mind' (ישוב הדעת) (Ben Ish Chai). May I merit the illumination of the shining from the wondrous impression of the purest radiances (Orot HaTzachtzachos) drawn from the holy tziyun, which shines brighter than the sun in its strength, and brings the sun out of its sheath, so that the light of the sun will be sevenfold like the light of the seven days, and the moon will shine like the sun, and the whole world will be filled with precious light in the merit of this holy and awesome tziyun. And may the verse be fulfilled: "Precious light and congealment," and may all my lusts congeal, and may I have no lust for any physical thing; rather, all my wellsprings and desires will be only for Your great, holy, and awesome Name, and may I merit to place the Name Havay"ah before my eyes at every single second. May I know faithfully that Hashem, blessed be He, is the One guiding me in every second, in every movement, and in every word and thought, and may all my thoughts be only holy, pure, clear, and pristine thoughts in the light of the purest radiances, in the lights drawn from this holy and awesome tziyun. And through the wondrous influences drawn from the holy and awesome tziyun here, may I merit that the entire essence of my body will be transformed into a holy, pure, and pristine body from the Garden of Eden, until all four elements from which my body is built will be transformed into the four letters of the Ineffable Name, and the purest radiances will nullify all the physicality of my body until no lust remains in it, until my body is transformed into my soul, and my soul into my Yechidah. May I know that there is none besides You, and may I merit, in the merit of the holy tziyun, the level of Yechidah at the ultimate highest degree, until I merit to walk in the Garden of Eden during my lifetime, and may I merit to be in the Garden of God all the days of my life. May my entire house spread the sweet fragrance of spices, as it is written, "My spikenard gave forth its fragrance," fragrances of faith and song, as it is written, "You shall come, you shall sing from the peak of faith (Amanah)," and may I merit the supernal pleasantness, the purest radiances, and wherever I look I will see only the wonders of the Creator, and the wonders of Your hidden Name, from now and forever.

Master of the Universe, grant me the merit to practice Hisbodedus (personal prayer) with immense and very great desire, without any slumber or sleep, and I will sing all kinds of songs during Hisbodedus, songs of devotion and teshuvah. Master of the Universe, Who dwells in the heights, Who sits in the heavens above, Who sees all the hidden places and all the meditations of my heart, please purify me to serve You in truth, for this is my entire desire, and I have no other desire and no other thought. My entire desire in this Hisbodedus is solely to draw close to You with a whole heart. You have revealed to us that when one practices Hisbodedus before You with a whole heart, it saves the entire world from all kinds of terrible decrees, and then it is possible to save the world so that no Jew will die or be killed at that hour, nor any person in the world, because during the hour of Hisbodedus, when done with a whole heart, judgments are sweetened from the entire world, and then Hashem, blessed be He, has no possibility of decreeing any decree in the world at all. Therefore, please save us, Master of the Universe, so that we may practice Hisbodedus before You for the entire hour with all our heart and soul, with tremendous weeping and wondrous joy. Please, Merciful One, by the power of our holy Rebbe and by the power of the Seven Shepherds who engaged in Hisbodedus all the days of their lives, and especially Moses our Teacher, who merited to practice Hisbodedus day and night from age 20 to age 80, engaging only in Hisbodedus, songs, and praises in the mountains, valleys, fields, and deserts, and nothing interrupted him. He never dozed or fell asleep, he neither ate nor drank, until he purified his body so much that he no longer needed to eat ever again out of his great devotion and love for Hashem. So too, grant me the merit to practice Hisbodedus before You with immense and wondrous desire, in flaming love, out of true lowliness. May I merit to feel my own nothingness, like Abraham our father who said, "I am but dust and ashes," and like King David who said, "I am a worm and not a man," and like Moses and Aaron who said, "And what are we?" May I not divert my attention from You during Hisbodedus even for a brief moment, and may I have pity on my youthful years and my few days of life, which are only one hundred and twenty and fly away like a flying bird and like a fleeting dream. Therefore, during Hisbodedus, I will utilize every second and moment, and I will not doze at all, and I will know my state of immense lowliness, that there is nothing that will save me except the hour of Hisbodedus, when You turn away from all Your affairs and have mercy with all Your heart and soul upon miserable souls like me, and turn to them in the intensity of Your mercy, raising them from the lowest level to the highest heights. So too, in Your abundant mercy, raise me as well from the lowest levels to the highest heights, endlessly and unfathomably, and perform wonders with me that You have never yet performed with any person. May I merit to return in complete teshuvah, and to bring the entire Jewish people back in teshuvah, and may we all merit the complete Geulah (Redemption), the coming of Mashiach ben David, the building of the Holy Temple, and the resurrection of the dead, speedily in our days, Amen.

Master of the Universe, grant me the merit to sing songs for the sake of Heaven, only songs of devotion to Hashem, and to feel You at every single moment, and to visualize the Name Havay"ah, Y-H-V-H, before my eyes. Whenever I sing solo or in a choir, I will sing only for the sake of Heaven, only songs of thanksgiving to You for all the good that You do for me, and songs of devotion to You. I will always cleave to You, and I will always sing, "My soul thirsts for You, my flesh longs for You, in a dry and weary land without water" (Psalms 63:2). I will have no pride when I sing, nor any ulterior motive to boast, and I will always know my lowliness and the evil of my deeds, that I am the worst of all, and I will rejoice only in You. I will fulfill "I will rejoice in Hashem," "My soul shall exult in my God," and all day long I will only sing and exult in You, "And I will play my melodies in the House of Hashem all the days of my life."

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, grant me the merit to play music solely for the sake of Heaven, for Your Name's sake, as it is written, "Praise Him with tambourine and dance, praise Him with stringed instruments and flute." May I always merit to remember the destruction of Jerusalem, and never become arrogant, and never play music, Heaven forbid, with lightheadedness. Rather, I will remember "the burning that Hashem has kindled," as it is written, "I will elevate 106 Jerusalem 401 above 596 my chief 100 joy 501" 758 = 2452. And may I merit only to add wisdom and knowledge every day, as it is said, 'For 30 Torah 464 scholars 118 whenever 50 they 97 age 531 wisdom 73 is added 992 to them' 47 = 2452.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, may Your mercy roll over Your attributes, and grant me the merit to be holy and pure like Joseph 156 the Tzaddik 209 = 365, and in this merit may I merit to know all of Shas = 365, and in the merit of songs and dances = 360 I will know Shas = 360. And in the merit that I will be included in the four matriarchs Sarah 505 Rebecca 307 Rachel 238 Leah 36 = 1086, may I merit to be immersed all my days in Gemara 246 Shas 360 Talmud 480 = 1086.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me on my birthday 58 = 445 = 513, that I may merit the level of Asenath = 513, which is seven times wisdom 7 x 73 = 511 = Asenath. May I merit, just as Joseph the Tzaddik merited through guarding the covenant, to the seven levels of wisdom, which are: 1. The first three (Chochmah, Binah, Daas) 2. Chesed 3. Gevurah 4. Tiferes 5. Netzach 6. Hod 7. Yesod. Please, Merciful and Gracious One, grant me in the merit of my birthday = 513 to spend all the days of my life in song + 1 = 513 and melody, and through the study of Shas = 360, may I merit all the days of my life to be solely in dances = 360. All the days of my life may I merit to cleave to You day and night 'with all 52 your heart 34 and with all 58 your soul' 431 = 575, and through this may I merit to declare at every moment and second, "Hashem our Lord, how mighty 215 is Your Name 360 = 575 in all the earth."

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, grant me the merit to be like the blind beggar who saw nothing, and like the deaf beggar who heard no sound from the sounds of the world, and like the stuttering beggar who never spoke mundane chatter, and like the beggar with the crooked neck who never emitted any vanity here in the world and always kept his neck crooked, and like the beggar with the crooked back who carries the whole world upon himself, and like the beggar without hands who can extract all the arrows, and has ten measures of charity, ten measures of wisdom, and ten types of melody to save everyone, and like the beggar without legs who has the melody and the dance of the Future to Come, of "You shall come, you shall sing from the peak of faith (Amanah)." May I merit to shed tears like a stream in the merit of the hour of Hisbodedus that I will do every day. In this merit, may I merit to hear the Ten Commandments at every moment, especially the commandment "I am 81 Hashem 26 your God 66 who 501 brought you out 531 from the land of 331 Egypt 380 from the house of 452 slaves" 126 = 2495. Through this, may the souls of 'Abraham 248 Isaac 208 Jacob 182 Moses 345 Aaron 256 Joseph 156 David 14 Sarah 505 Rebecca 307 Rachel 238 Leah' 36 = 2495 become impregnated within me.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, abundant in power, "to those who have no might He increases strength," Merciful and Gracious One, grant me from now and forever to wake up every night a little before Chatzos (midnight), and may midnight never pass over me in sleep. Please act according to the greatness of Your wonders, and remove the cords of sleep from my eyes and slumber from my eyelids, and may my intellect always be clear, pristine, holy, and pure for Your service and comprehension, and wherever I learn, may I immediately understand in the blink of an eye. May I merit to fulfill Tikkun Chatzos while sitting on the ground, placing ashes in the place of the Tefillin, shedding tears like a river and pouring out my heart like water. May I never divert my attention from You, and may I never blemish the covenant again, and may I never blemish my eyes again. May I merit to be absolutely holy and pure with the holiness of our holy Rebbe, and may I be purified and sanctified with the holiness from above. All the days of my life, may I merit to always wake up a little before Chatzos, to feel the pain of the Destruction and the pain of the Jewish people. After Tikkun Chatzos, I will do an hour of Hisbodedus, and afterward I will learn with true joy and with the true delight of the Torah in You. I will rejoice and be glad all the time, and all the days of my life I will spend in the study of Torah, prayer, and good deeds, with songs and dances without ceasing. As the Maharzu writes in Bereishit Rabbah (8:6), 'When they sang a song over the downfall of Sisera, then everything was forgiven them, and a new reckoning began from then on.' And as it is written in Midrash Shmuel (29), it is explained that song completely forgives former sins and they become a new creation. Thus, through song, a person becomes a completely new creation, and through divine joy in Hashem, blessed be He, one merits Divine Inspiration (Ruach HaKodesh), like Jonah the prophet who merited prophecy at the Joy of the Water Drawing. So too, may You grant me to rejoice and be glad in the House of Hashem all the days of my life, until I merit the level of Divine Inspiration, and the level of prophecy.

Master of the Universe, open my heart in the study of Shas, which corresponds to the three hundred and sixty days in the year, which corresponds to the three hundred and sixty-five years of Enoch. Through this, may I merit the impregnation of the soul of Enoch, which is the supernal radiance (Zihara Ila'ah) of Adam HaRishon. May I too merit, through the study of Shas, the supernal radiance of Adam HaRishon, just as Enoch merited. Through this, may I merit the Divine Image (Tzelem Elokim), and to be included "in the image of God," for our Rebbe said that it is impossible to merit the Divine Image except for one who completes Shas. Then I will merit the impregnation of the angel Uriel, and therefore in the image of 162 God 86 = 248, which is the numerical value of the angel Uriel = 248. Please, Merciful and Gracious One, I know that all the forgiveness of my sins depends on the study of Shas, and therefore "with You 130 is forgiveness" 118 = 248, for I desire true life, and therefore 'desires 178 life' 70 = 248. Please, Merciful and Gracious One, grant me what our Rebbe said in Torah 8 (Part 2, Section 2), that there are three cavities of the skull of the brain, and one must fill them with the study of Shas, Gemara, and Talmud, to subdue the klipah of Lilith through Talmud = 480, and the klipah of Machalas bas Igras through dances and dancing. Please, Merciful and Gracious One, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, grant me to increase in dances and dancing, and by increasing in dances 490 and dancing 360 = 850, may I merit to sit in the Yeshiva day and night, and not leave the Yeshiva even for a moment, and to be like King David, peace be upon him, who said, "Here 85 I will sit 303 for 30 I have desired it" 432 = 850. And through the study of Shas = 360 day and night without ceasing, may I merit song and dances 360, and to sit a full 355 year 495 = 850 and learn Torah without stopping for a second, and not to leave the entrance of the Yeshiva at all, until I merit to know all of Shas perfectly, forwards and backwards, with broad proficiency and deep analysis, with all the Rishonim and Acharonim, Rambam, Tur, and Shulchan Aruch and all their commentators, and all the Poskim in the world.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, You can transform the entire essence of my body so that I will no longer desire any physical thing; rather, my entire body and flesh will yearn for You with an intense yearning, which will grow stronger from day to day and from hour to hour, until the verses are fulfilled in me (Psalms 63): "O God, You are my God, I seek You earnestly; my soul thirsts for You, my flesh longs for You, in a dry and weary land without water." I will not desire eating or drinking, nor sleep, nor other physical things, only "my heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God," until I merit "my soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me." I will only yearn and long for Your great and holy glory, until even when lying on my bed I will only meditate upon You day and night without stopping for a single second or pausing. I will be in the aspect of "A constant fire shall burn upon the altar; it shall not be extinguished," and as it is written, "When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches." My longing for You and my yearning for You will grow stronger and stronger from moment to moment, until the verse is fulfilled in me, "Singers and dancers alike, all my wellsprings are in You," and I will only dance and sing in the House of Hashem, as it is written, "And I will play my melodies in the House of Hashem." I will not desire any physical thing in the world at all, and all my wellsprings and thoughts will be attached only to You, and all my meditations only on Your greatness and Your glory, and to see at every moment and second more and more miracles and wonders endlessly and unfathomably. "Only for God does my soul wait in silence, for my hope is from Him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken." May I merit to be like the holy Matriarchs, about whom it is said, "All my wellsprings are in You," "Fortunate is the man to whom Hashem does not impute iniquity," for a person is called such only if, in the second he does not think about Hashem, it is considered an iniquity for him. Grant me, Master of the Universe, Almighty, "My Redeemer lives, and He shall stand at last upon the earth," that I may merit to complete Your intention in my creation, and may I merit to complete Your image and likeness in which You created my soul, my spirit, my living soul, and my body, my 248 limbs and 365 sinews, that they may all be transformed into spiritual entities. May all my 248 limbs and 365 sinews be transformed into holy and pure Names, and may not a single drop of physical blood remain in me, Heaven forbid, at all. May I merit to be absolutely pure and holy, until I merit to attain the aspect of Yechidah, and I will know that there is no reality in the world besides You at all, "And You rule over all" and guide everything, and everything is only from You and from Your holy and wondrous hand. Until I merit to ascend to the Nukva of Atik, which was formed from the first 5 [Sefiros] of Keter of the Name B"N - Y-V"D H-"H V-"V H-"H, and through this may I merit to be included in the holy Name A"B - Y-V"D H-"Y V-Y"V H-"Y, until I merit to be included in the head of Adam Kadmon, where there is no evil at all, and where nothing is lacking, and there everything is 'one eye of mercy' (Eina chada d'rachamei). Until I merit to have mercy on all Your creations boundlessly and endlessly, and may Your mercy be stirred for the son of Your beloved ones, until I too merit that my mercy will be upon all Your creations, for all compassion comes only to one who is holy with the holiness of the covenant in absolute holiness and purity, until all my traits will be only mercy and lovingkindness. May I merit 'one eye of mercy' to be the heart of the whole world, in the aspect of King David who merited to be the heart of the whole world, to the point that the toenail of his foot was more heartfelt than the heart of another person, because all day long he would cry out to the spring until his soul expired, as it is written, "From the end of the earth I will cry to You, when my heart faints; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For You have been a refuge for me, a tower of strength against the enemy. I will dwell in Your tent forever; I will take refuge in the shelter of Your wings, Selah." Until I merit to be transformed into Your holy essence, as it is written, "A land that consumes its inhabitants." And may I merit, through the holiness and purity that I will attain in absolute holiness and purity, to be transformed into the heart of the whole world, and of all the generations.

Please

Hashem, Almighty, in the merit that the Children of Israel remained silent, they merited the splitting of the Red Sea and the Song of the Sea, and the song of Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, who merited to take the tambourine (Tof) = 480 in her hand, and through this to subdue Lilith = 480 the wicked one, and all 480 myriads of her army camps. And through this, "Terror and dread fall upon them; by the greatness of Your arm they are still as a stone, till Your people pass over, O Hashem, till the people pass over whom You have purchased. You will bring them in and plant them on the mountain of Your inheritance, the place, O Hashem, which You have made for Your dwelling, the sanctuary, O Lord, which Your hands have established." May we merit, in the merit of silence, as it is said, "And you shall remain silent," during the Song of the Sea, which was a song and thanksgiving to Hashem, as it is said, "You have led in Your steadfast love the people whom You have redeemed; You have guided them by Your strength to Your holy abode. The peoples have heard; they tremble; pangs have seized the inhabitants of Philistia. Then were the chiefs of Edom dismayed; trembling seizes the leaders of Moab; all the inhabitants of Canaan have melted away." For the entire redemption was in the merit of the song, and Hezekiah, because he did not sing a song, did not truly merit to be redeemed, and did not merit to be Mashiach ben David, which was supposed to happen had he sung a song and thanksgiving for the miracles he saw in the downfall of Sennacherib and his armies, in one hour on the night of the Seder. Please Hashem, grant us the merit to sing and play the prayer every single day, every letter that leaves our mouths with song, dances, and melodies, and may we not miss, Heaven forbid, a single letter without melodies and songs, especially the Song of the Sea and Mizmor LeSodah (Psalm of Thanksgiving), which we are obligated to say with melodies as ruled in the Shulchan Aruch in the laws of Pesukei D'Zimra. And all of Pesukei D'Zimra and all the blessings of the Shema I will always say with melody, song, and dance. In this merit, all the screens resting upon my brain will fall away, and my intellect and mind will be opened in the study of Torah endlessly, and my mouth will not cease from studying day and night, even for a single second.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, grant me to pour out my heart like water before You, and grant our son the merit to always know 'that the dominion 700 is before You 190, strength 77 is in Your hand 36, and might 222 is in Your right hand 132 = 1357, and Your Name is awesome over all that You have created.' May he always be attached to You in truth and sincerity, and to our holy and awesome Rebbe in truth and sincerity, and may he merit all day and all night to sing to You and sing songs to You, as it is said, 'I will sing 248 praises 372 to enter 180 within 9 the gates' 548 = 1357. And through this, may You open for him all the gates of the intellect, and all the gates of holiness = 1000, and may he be attached to the intellect 357 = 1357 of holiness, and all his days may he fulfill the verse "I will rejoice 354 and exult 202 in You 22, I will sing 253 to Your Name 360, Most High" 166 = 1357.

Please

Hashem, grant me to know all of Shas, Ketzos HaChoshen, Nesivos HaMishpat, Tokfo Kohen, as it is said, "And I will look 27 at the wonders 567 of Your Torah" 1066 = 1660. Please Hashem, "who 501 has not 31 lifted up 351 my soul 337 in vain" 440 = 1660, in the merit of the study of Torah, "and the wolf shall dwell with the lamb," and through this may I find favor in the eyes of all the wolves, bears, and leopards, as it is said, "And Esther 421 found 757 favor 58 in the eyes of 142 all 50 who saw her" 222 = 1650, in the merit of Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah 42. For 'there is no 61 free 52 man 52 except 32 one who 50 engages 536 in Torah' 613 = 1660, and through this may there rest upon me "the spirit of Hashem, a spirit of wisdom 73 and understanding 73, a spirit of counsel 165 and might 222, a spirit of knowledge and fear of 617 Hashem" 26. May I merit to see Hashem face to face, as it is said, "When shall I come 10 and appear before God" = 1660. And through this, may I be covered in a Tallis 451 that is entirely 361 Techeiles 850 = 1662, in the merit of song, melody, and dance, as it is said, "And Deborah 906 sang 217 and Barak 308 son of 52 Abinoam" 179 = 1662.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me the merit to say thank you for every single thing, and my mouth will always be filled with songs and praises, thanks and acknowledgments. I will always sacrifice my soul to say thank you, and I will never forget to say thank you. May I merit to be included in the secret of the 'Supernal Bride' who is comprised of all the songs and praises, as it is said, "You shall come, you shall sing from the peak of faith (Amanah)." May I merit to include in my song and praises all the thanksgivings until the end of all generations. Especially, I will thank You with songs and praises of Shabbos Kodesh, Melaveh Malkah, for the entire purpose of Shabbos is solely songs, praises, and thanksgivings, as it is written in Likutey Halachos (Even HaEzer page 11), that the entire night of Shabbos is only to sing, dance, and praise. I will spend all my days solely in thanksgivings, songs, and praises, for it is said regarding Deborah that through song all their sins were forgiven, in the secret of "When retribution was exacted in Israel, when the people dedicated themselves," "riders of white donkeys," that through "I, to Hashem I will sing," all their sins were forgiven, and holiness, songs, and praises descended even upon donkeys. For song is the aspect of Mashiach, which draws holiness even upon the murky body called 'the skin of the serpent' (Mishka D'Chivya), and also the "riders of white donkeys" merited that all their sins turned white as snow, as it is said, "Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow," in the secret of "white donkeys," that through song and thanksgiving they merited teshuvah out of love, and merited that all their sins turned white. Just as the daughters of Israel in the time of the Holy Temple merited on every Yom Kippur to dance the entire Yom Kippur from morning until evening, and to dance in white dresses as good as new that they received on loan. And through this comes the downfall of the entire Sitra Achra (Other Side), as it is said, "The thousand are for you, Solomon," the secret of the downfall of the klipos of Sihon and Og, whose numerical value is one thousand: "Sihon king of the Amorites" = 566, "Og king of Bashan" = 434 = 1000. And through the fact that we will always thank Hashem day and night = 177 without stopping for a second or a moment, we will merit to enter with our bodies into the Supernal Garden of Eden, the place where all souls are hewn.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, at the hour when I fall into the Sefirah of Malchus of the world of Asiyah, please save me from the anger that comes from constricted consciousness (Mochin D'Katnus). When a person falls to Malchus of Asiyah, which is very low, where all the anger and wrath come from constricted consciousness, because of which they fall into anger. For by being saved from anger, one merits to enter directly into the Garden of Eden without any judgment, and through this one merits sons and daughters who embrace the arms of the world. Please Hashem, grant me to know 'that the dominion 700 is before You 190, strength 83 is in Your hand 36, and might 222 is in Your right hand' 132 = 1357, for it is impossible to be saved from anger except through songs and dances, songs and praises, as it is said, 'I will sing 248 praises 372 to enter 180 within 9 the gates' 548 = 1357, and "I will rejoice 354 and exult 202 in You 22, I will sing 253 to Your Name 360, Most High" 166 = 1357. And through this, You will reveal "the greatness 48 and the might 222 and the glory 1087 = 1357 and the victory," and also 'with joyful song Your Name will be glorified.'

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, 'Who brings out the prisoner from the dungeon, and those who sit in the shadow of death from darkness,' grant me, while I am in prison like Joseph the Tzaddik for no wrong in his hands, to reach now in these days the level of Joseph the Tzaddik, who could not put on Tefillin, nor conduct the Seder night, and nevertheless was a 'leaping man' (Gvar Kafuz), and only jumped and danced all the days for twelve years, and sang and chanted and praised Hashem, blessed be He, day and night, melodies, songs, and praises, blessings and thanksgivings, with song and melody, until the entire prison trembled at the sound of his song, and the doorposts shook, and his voice pierced all the heavens, and tore through all the firmaments, until Pharaoh in his own glory sent to bring him out of his prison. And then he performed miracles and wonders, and sustained the entire world for seven years, and provided for his entire father's household with bread according to the little ones, according to the power of the prayer that he merited specifically in the prison when they put him into the pit. And in his merit, "The sea saw and fled," and Israel merited the Exodus from Egypt, and the splitting of the Red Sea, speedily in our days, Amen.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me the creation of the world anew, the secret of "Bereishit" (In the beginning), the secret of 'Rosh Bayit' (Head of the house), the secret of 'Et Rashbi', the root for all the worlds was created, the secret of the goblet 13 x 72 = 936, the secret of Mordechai and Esther + 1 = 936, the secret of Mattisyahu and his sons + 1 = 936. For through 'Bereishit', teshuvah out of love, one merits the secret of 'Shirat Av' (Song of the Father), that we may merit to sing and play music day and night = 177. And then one enters with the body into the Garden of Eden = 177, like Serach the daughter of Asher = 1411, who entered with her body into the Garden of Eden, and all her thoughts were to overthrow Esau, who is the root of evil, like Orpah who was the root of evil for all generations. And through the word "Bereishit" one subdues them all, and merits the lights of the Ein Sof (Infinite), and to subdue the king of Arad = 274, who is the root of all the Arodin (demons/wild donkeys) in the world, which are created from the separation between the heel of Leah and the crown of Rachel. And this is "How beautiful are your footsteps in sandals," when the feet of Leah connect with the crown of Rachel, and the crown of Rachel becomes the sandals for Leah, and then Leah has sandals, in the secret of "and the needy for a pair of sandals," and then the Shechinah (Divine Presence) has sandals to descend below ten handbreadths, which we merit on Chanukah, when the Shechinah receives sandals to descend below ten handbreadths. And therefore "Joseph was brought down to Egypt" to the place of klipos, because he had already merited sandals that protected him, for he merited to connect the heels of Leah with the crown of Rachel, and then "Upon Edom I will cast my shoe." And this is the secret of "A womb or two for every man," that the abundance of mercy was revealed in the merit of Yael, who became the High Priest, who is Eli, and from them came Abaye, whose ruling is followed in Y'A'E'L K'G'A'M, the secret of the filling of EKY"E 143. For Joseph merited to rectify all the constrictions in the world, through faith, joy, and dancing for 12 years from which he did not cease even for a single second, and he only saw Hashem eye to eye. For Yael "crushed, shattered his head, smashed his temple," by connecting the heel of Leah with the crown of Rachel. And this is the secret of "Go out in the footsteps of the flock," they are Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, who connected the heels of Leah with the crown of Rachel, which is the secret of "the white peeling that was on the rods," and then Jacob merited to connect the heels of Leah with the crown of Rachel, and then his blessing was fulfilled, "that bites the horse's heels, so that its rider falls backward," for he connected Rachel and Leah. And then Samson was born, who brought down the whole house with millions of people, in the merit of the eye that was gouged out. For there are 'Akev' (heel) words in the Ten Commandments in order to connect the heels of Leah with the crown of Rachel, and then the crown of Rachel becomes the sandal of Leah, and then "Upon Edom I will cast my shoe," and it does not say my sword or my spear, only "my shoe," because the moment the heels of Leah become the crown of Rachel, then the end will come for Esau, as it is said, "Then were the chiefs of Edom dismayed; trembling seizes the leaders of Moab" = 274, Rachel Leah = 274. For the moment the heels of Leah connect with the crown of Rachel, then "all the inhabitants of Canaan have melted away," and the end will come for all the enemies of Israel, who are Ammon, Moab, and Edom, like in the days of Jehoshaphat when they all gathered at Ein Gedi—Edom, Moab, and Ammon—and as soon as the people of Israel began with joyous song, straight away "Give thanks to Hashem, for His lovingkindness is eternal," immediately every man's sword was against his fellow, and by the time they reached the village of Jeruel they found them all dead corpses. And Dathan and Abiram, who did not want to believe in the greatness of the miracle of the Manna, and went out on the Sabbath day to gather the Manna and blemished the secret of "Bereishit," 'Yareh Shabbat' (fearing the Sabbath), 'Yareh Boshet' (fearing shame), and then all the Arodin that harm people came out into the world. For 'Woe to the person who is met by an Arod, and woe to the Arod that is met by Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa,' who had already connected the heels of Leah with the crown of Rachel, and through this he said to his daughter, 'He who told the oil to burn will tell the vinegar to burn.' And it is impossible to connect the heels of Leah with the crown of Rachel, except through song and dances.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to be like Joseph, about whom it is said, "and whatever he does, Hashem makes prosper in his hand." The Midrash Rabbah says he was a "leaping man" (Gvar Kafuz). The Matnot Kehunah explains that for the entire twelve years he was in prison he was solely skipping and leaping, as it is said, "The voice of my beloved, behold it comes, leaping over the mountains, skipping over the hills," that for the entire twelve years he was in prison he did not stop skipping and leaping, jumping and dancing 24 hours without stopping for a second, except for sixty breaths when he would doze within the 24 hours. And so he began in the house of Potiphera, and from there to the twelve years he was in prison, and from there to the nine years he was in the royal palace and ruled over Egypt, and he did not stop even for a single second from skipping and dancing. And this is what the brothers also learned from him, to jump and dance, and may we too merit to learn from Joseph to jump and dance all the days of our lives, to dance without stopping for a second. And may I merit to fulfill what the brothers decided, to redeem him with all the money in the world that would be decreed upon them.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to be like Jacob our father who did not give up even on small jugs, and did not give up on any matter of Torah, even the smallest of the small, and may the verse be fulfilled in me: "Fortunate 511 is he who considers 410 the 31 poor 34, on the day of 58 evil 275 Hashem 26 will deliver him 100" = 1435. And through this, "And the Children of Israel were fruitful 286 and swarmed 612 and multiplied 224 and became mighty 222 very 47 much 45" = 1435. May I merit a hundred sons and daughters, and I will no longer disparage small jugs, which are the Mitzvos that a person tramples with his heels; rather, I will lift my heels in song and dances, and through this I will rectify everything I have blemished with my heels, that I trampled the small Mitzvos, may Hashem protect us.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me ten sons and ten daughters, as it is said, "As 501 the host of 93 heaven 395 cannot 31 be numbered 350, nor 37 the sand of 44 the sea 55 measured 54, so 70 will I multiply 208 the 401 offspring of 277 David 14 My servant 86 = 2516 and the Levites who minister to Me." And in this merit I will always sing and chant before You, as it is said, "Then 8 Moses and the Children of Israel sang." And may that which is said be fulfilled in me: Hashem is One 1, 'I am 61 a wall 59, pure 207 as the sun 73, exiled 44 and turned away 277, likened 441 to a palm tree 670, killed 224 for You 130, embraced 121 and cleaved 123 to You 22' = 2516.

Grant

me, Master of the Universe, to be like King David, peace be upon him, to wake up every night at Chatzos, and to play music and sing before You, as it is written, "And I will play my melodies in the House of Hashem all the days of my life." In this merit, may I merit an abundance of wealth in spirituality and physicality, and an apartment in the third wall [of Jerusalem], and the complete Geulah (Redemption). May I merit to see the face of Mashiach ben David while still alive, and may we become holy in the blink of an eye, and pure with the holiness of our holy Rebbe. May we merit to conduct ourselves in holiness and purity with tremendous holiness, and may we merit to hear all the time the wondrous melody of the True Tzaddik, which spreads through all the worlds of 'Atzilut, Beriah, Yetzirah, Asiyah'. May we yearn for You with all our heart and soul, with all our 248 limbs and all our 365 sinews. May I merit to pray day and night, and may we merit to be included perfectly in the soul of our holy Rebbe, and to reveal our shared and united roots in the soul of the Tzaddik.

Master of the Universe, grant me to be strengthened in song = 517, to be strengthened in prayer = 517. And may I merit to be a veteran 516 disciple 484 = 1000 of our holy and awesome Rebbe, and to know all of Shas by heart, and whatever I do I will succeed, as it is said, for 30 Israel 541 does 381 valiantly 48 = 1000.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, upon my reaching the age of 39 (Lamed-Tes), grant me the verse "For Your dew is a dew of light, and the earth shall cast out the dead," and may I merit the dew of the resurrection of the dead. May I merit to be like Daniel, a man of 311 desirable qualities 464 = 775, who rode and defeated 1464 lions, 'for in Nissan 172 they are destined 534 to be redeemed' 69 = 775. May I merit to see the complete Geulah, and may I merit to see in my days the building of the Holy Temple, and all my days may I merit to be solely in the upper 211 worlds 552 = 775. May I merit all my days to spend solely in song and melody, in thanksgiving 417 and joyous songs 358 = 775. May I merit to know all of Shas, Gemara, Rambam, Tur, Shulchan Aruch, Ketzos HaChoshen, Nesivos HaMishpat, Tokfo Kohen, Likutey Moharan, Likutey Halachos, Sipurey Ma'asiyot, Likutey Tefillos, everything word for word, letter by letter, with broad proficiency and deep analysis.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, Creator of 209 healings 693, awesome in 257 praises 841 = 1000, heal me in the blink of 305 an eye 130 = 435 in the merit of the Tzaddik 209, foundation of 80 the world 146 = 435. Perform miracles and wonders for me like for Daniel, a man of 311 desirable qualities 464 = 775, who rode and defeated 1464 lions. May we merit to praise You in song 517 and melody 258 = 775 with thanksgiving 417 and joyous songs 358 = 775. And grant me 87 the verse "Set me 410 as a seal 474 upon 100 your heart 52, as a seal 474 upon 100 your arm 303 = 2000, for love is strong as death, jealousy is as cruel as the grave, its flashes are flashes of fire, the flame of God."

Master of the Universe, Almighty, during the recitation of Tikkun Chatzos, grant me to ascend to Adam Kadmon of Adam Kadmon, the secret of "Amar Neka" (clean wool), which Amram merited. For because Amram merited the secret of "Amar Neka," he merited to bring the whole world back in teshuvah, and if he had not divorced Yocheved, he would have merited that all of Egypt would do teshuvah, like in the days of Hezekiah when five cities spoke the language of Canaan, and accepted upon themselves the 613 Mitzvos, and all of Egypt swore by the Name of Hashem of Hosts, and accepted upon themselves the Seven Noahide Laws. Because after Rachel the daughter of Shuthelach's daughter miscarried into the mud, and the fetus turned into a sapphire brick, about which it is said, "And He did not remember His footstool on the day of His wrath," this is the "sapphire brick" in which the baby of Rachel, the daughter of Shuthelach's daughter, the firstborn son of Ephraim, was embedded. For about Ephraim it is said, "And he mourned for them many days," these are the two hundred thousand mighty men from the tribe of Ephraim who left Egypt after four hundred years from the Covenant Between the Parts, and were all killed by the men of Gath, "And Ephraim their father mourned many days," meaning that Ephraim continued to live another 180 years from the beginning of the exile, thirty years before their Exodus from Egypt. And this is the secret of "Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the stronghold of my head; Judah is my lawgiver." For Ephraim merited the aspect of "And they are the myriads of thousands of Ephraim," just as David merited that all the women sang to him, "Saul has struck down his thousands, and David his myriads." For David and Ephraim, who was Mashiach ben David, merited the aspect of "myriads" because they did not miss even one Tikkun Chatzos in their lives, and midnight never passed over them in sleep. Therefore, both of them merited the aspect of myriads, which is the Keter (Crown) of Atik, where the myriads are, and from there comes the cutting off of all enemies through the Keter. Therefore, Elijah the prophet hid by the Brook of Cherith, for from there comes the cutting off of all the haters and enemies of Israel. For Chatzos is the aspect of "Kalleh" (destroy), "Destroy them in wrath, destroy them that they be no more," the secret of Chatzos, the 'Harp of David', for the Bride (Kallah) is the secret of the 'Harp of David', for she is entirely song and melody, in the secret of "You shall come, you shall sing from the peak of faith (Amanah)," that only through song and melody "from the peak of faith" will the Geulah be. Therefore, it is impossible to split the closed Mem except through song and melody, especially song and melody during Tikkun Chatzos, which is the secret of 'Kutra B'Izka' (the knot in the ring), which is what splits the closed Mem, which is the secret of the Geulah. And all this Hezekiah did not know, for even though he was an actual reincarnation of Amram, and brought all of Egypt back in teshuvah—something no one else merited, not even Amram—nevertheless, to attain the secret of 'Kutra B'Izka', which is the secret of 'Bereishit', for it needed to be 'Me'Reishit' [Tikkun 5], but Hashem split the Mem and turned it into a Bet. And here Hezekiah needed, through Tikkun Chatzos, song, and melody, to transform the closed Mem of "L'Marbeh (To the increase of) his government and peace there shall be no end," and turn it into an open "Mem", which is the secret of the Geulah, the secret of Mashiach ben David. But this is impossible except through song and melody, in the aspect of "Come with me from Lebanon, my bride, with me from Lebanon. You shall come, you shall sing from the peak of faith (Amanah)," for only this is what splits the closed Mem. And this is accomplished through each and every Tikkun Chatzos with song and melodies, for then they split the closed Mem, which are the 12 screens that are over the brain and the intellect. For the main thing is to contemplate the intellect of everything, and the intellect is the guide, and it opens all the gates, as it is said, "With wisdom He opens gates," and one ascends to Adam Kadmon of Adam Kadmon, in the secret of "Amar Neka," the secret of 'Amram the father of Moses', who could have, through his Tikkun Chatzos, brought the complete Geulah, and built the Holy Temple, a Temple of fire, and brought Mashiach ben David, and resurrected all the dead. And then we would have merited to say the complete Hallel all of Pesach, for through Hallel it is possible to resurrect all the dead. And this is done today through Tikkun Chatzos with intention, with song and melodies, through which one ascends to Adam Kadmon of Adam Kadmon, especially through the song of 'Sha'arei Tziyon', for this liturgical poem opens all the gates. Therefore, at Chatzos we sing, "Lift up your heads, O gates, and be lifted up, O everlasting doors," for with this verse Solomon opened all the gates of the Temple, and brought the Ark with the Cherubim and the Tablets into its place and its foundation, the Holy of Holies.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me not to fear anything, and I will not fear any man, nor any terrorist, nor any murderer, nor any judge, nor any investigator, nor any police officer, as it is said, "And you shall be 431 firm 236 and not 37 fear" 661. May I merit the 50 = 1365 gates of understanding, and may I merit to nullify all my pride 15. And through this, what was said regarding Samson the mighty will be fulfilled in me: "He 12 will save 396 Israel 541" = 1365. May I merit to serve Hashem with true love 15, and may the verse be fulfilled in me: "And you shall do 786 only 21 what is good 22 and right 521 = 1365 in the eyes of God and man." And in the merit that I will not fear anything or any person in the world, grant me, Merciful Father 3, to split the sea, "Sun 646 stand still 50 in Gibeon 143, and moon 224 in the valley of 212 Aijalon 97" = 1365. Please, One Hashem, Merciful Father 3, grant me to know 'that the dominion 700 is before You 190, strength 83 is in Your hand 36, and might 222 is in Your right hand 132 = 1365, and Your Name is awesome over all that You have created.' Please perform miracles and wonders with me, and I will no longer fear anything in the world. And may I merit, One Hashem, solely to sing and chant all the days of my life, as it is said, "Then 8 Moses and the Children of Israel sang this song," and "I will sing 248 praises 372 to enter 180 within 9 the gates" 548 = 1365. And You 412 Merciful Father 3, in Your abundant 252 mercy 280, have mercy 248 upon us 166 = 1366 and upon our offspring. And may we merit, in the merit of "Then 8 Moses and the Children of Israel sang," to sons and daughters embracing 522 the arms of 682 the world 146 = 1365.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to wake up early in the morning, no later than 5:00 AM, and I will pray the entire prayer word for word, letter by letter, and I will not miss any letter, any word, or any melody.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, upon my reaching the age of ..., grant me to thank You day 96 and night 81 = 177, 'For it is good 17 to give thanks 451 to You 50, and fitting 56 to sing 277 to Your Name 396' = 1247. And through this, perform miracles and wonders for us like in the days of 62 Mattisyahu 861 son of 52 Yochanan 124 the High 43 Priest 75, 'For 30 it is good to give thanks to You, and fitting to sing to Your Name.' And I will enter with my body into the Garden of 53 Eden 124 = 177.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me Emunah and Bitachon (faith and trust), and I will always remember the verse "Hashem will fight for you, and you shall remain silent." And through this, may I merit to ascend to the root of roots, to Adam Kadmon, and may I merit to fulfill the verse "You shall come, you shall sing from the peak of faith (Amanah)." May I merit the song which is the peak of faith and trust, and all the time I will only sing and praise You. May I merit the verse "Yours, Hashem, is the greatness"—this is the splitting of the Red Sea, "and the power"—this is the plague of the firstborn, "and the glory"—this is Jerusalem, "and the victory"—this is the building of the Holy Temple. And in the merit that I will attain infinite faith and trust, may I merit to see how the Holy Temple of fire descends, with ruby stones of 20 cubits by 10 cubits, and the entire Holy Temple is surrounded by ruby, chrysolite, beryl, and jasper stones, and all of Jerusalem will be surrounded by ruby, jacinth, agate, and amethyst stones, in the merit of the faith and trust that we will believe in You at every moment and second. And through this, we will merit to enter the Garden of Eden, under 13 canopies drawn from the Name of A"B, which is the secret of the goblet (Gavi'a) that Joseph the Tzaddik hinted to them, who withstood all the tests in the world, 13 x 72 numerical value = 936, numerical value of Mordechai and Esther + 1 = 936, numerical value of Mattisyahu and his sons + 1 = 936, and may I merit abundant flow in every second and second.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to know Shas, Ketzos HaChoshen, Nesivos HaMishpat, Tokfo Kohen, in the merit of "And Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang," "this song to Hashem, I will sing to Hashem," "I, to Hashem I will sing, I will play music to Hashem the God of Israel." And in this merit, may I merit three Havayot 78, corresponding to 'Yetzirah, Beriah, Atzilut'. And through this, may I merit that my wife will be "A woman of 701 valor 48 who 50 can find 141, her worth 265 is far 314 beyond pearls 280" = 1877, in the blink of 305 an eye 130 = 435, and I will bring with her {him} Mashiach 359 ben 52 David 24 = 435, in the merit of the Tzaddik 209 foundation of 80 the world 146 = 435 who performs all the miracles and wonders. And through this, may I merit the Name of A"B 72, and to see Elijah the prophet face to face, as it is written 448 "Behold 60 I 81 send 344 to you 90 Elijah 52 the prophet 68 before 170 the coming of 9 the great and awesome day of 56 Hashem 26 = 1877."

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to reach the level of Ruth the Moabitess, who according to the Gemara Sotah 42b was the daughter of Eglon king of Moab, and according to the Gemara Sanhedrin 105b was the granddaughter of Eglon king of Moab. She left the royal palace, which was entirely covered in gold wallpapers, beds of gold, bedding of gold, and pillows with gold embroidery, and she left everything, abandoned everything, and went to glean ears of grain in the field of Boaz, "Bo - Oz" (In him is strength), who achieved the holiness of the covenant in absolute perfection, beyond which there is no perfection. May we merit to be like Ruth, who satiated the Holy One, blessed be He, with songs and praises day and night = 177, and because she sang and chanted 24 hours without stopping for a second, she merited to enter with her body into the Garden of Eden = 177.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to reach the level of "And the favor of Him who dwells in the bush, let it come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the crown of the head of the one separated from his brothers." Because Joseph never profaned his mouth in his life, he merited the Sefirah of the Crown (Kodkod), which is the Sefirah of Adam Kadmon of Adam Kadmon, from which the ancient brook, the brook of Kishon, flows and waters the earth. May I merit to be like that young woman who never profaned her mouth in her life, and never listened to forbidden melodies in her life, and got out of the taxi in the middle of the road on her way to Tiberias, to the navel of the earth, the Sefirah of Tiferes. And then another new taxi immediately came, and there was an elderly woman who was entirely full of proper conduct, and she asked the young woman to accompany her to Rabbi Meir Ba'al HaNes, for he performed miracles and wonders endlessly and unfathomably. The young woman was on the third day of her engagement and had absolutely nothing, except the clothing on her skin. Then that elderly woman asked her, "Where are you coming from and where are you going?" The young woman answered, "It has been three days since my engagement, and my parents' house is empty of any penny, and I have no chance of marrying a Torah scholar, because my house is empty, and I have no clothing." That old woman answered her and said, "Today is the 14th of Iyar, it is a great day for us, for our family, because a miracle also happened to our father when he was at Rabbi Meir Ba'al HaNes. Today we emerged from our terrible lowliness, for only a slice of bread with bitter olive oil was our entire meal on weekdays and on Shabbos, and we did not know what a delicacy was, and so it was from the day of our birth for 20 years, until our father and mother traveled to Rabbi Meir Ba'al HaNes, and immediately we merited fabulous wealth. Today we are among the wealthy of Jerusalem, and my father and mother made a vow that all their sons and daughters, on this great day of the 14th of Iyar, every son and daughter will find a bride lacking means, and will marry her off from the foundation to the rafters, from a shoelace to a 5-room apartment." And all this that bride merited was in the merit of guarding her mouth from profanity, and her ears from any forbidden melody even a hairsbreadth. Please Hashem, 'You have restored 620 my soul 800 within me 12 = 1432 with great compassion, great is Your faithfulness,' grant me in the merit of guarding the mouth, the ears, and the tongue, 'the ultimate 890 knowledge 104 is that we do not 331 know' 124 = 1449. And in this merit may I merit the dew of 39 blessings, 'for I love 414 uprightness' 605 = 1449. In the merit that I will guard my mouth, my tongue, and my ears, may I merit the crown of 620 my soul 800, and to be included in the 12 tribes 12 = 1432.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to hear the angel with 1000 heads, and each head 1000 mouths, and each mouth 1000 voices, and each voice 1000 melodies. Please Hashem, grant me to hear only kosher melodies from kosher musicians, so that through this I will be able to hear the angel with the 1000 heads, and each head 1000 mouths, and each mouth 1000 voices, and each voice 1000 melodies, and that everything is drawn from the Name of A"B, Y-V"D H-"Y V-A"V H-"Y, A"B = 72, for this Name is drawn from the hairs of Adam Kadmon, as it is said, "and the hair of his head like clean wool (Amar Neka)," the secret of Amram, the secret of "Then Hashem answered Job out of the whirlwind (Se'arah - also meaning hair)," from the hairs of his head. And through this, may I merit that the souls of the four Matriarchs 'Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah' and King David, peace be upon him, numerical value 1100, become impregnated within me: Sarah 505 Rebecca 307 Rachel 238 Leah = 36 = 1086 David 14 = 1100, numerical value of "Blessed shall she be above women 440 in the tent 38" 622 = 1100. And therefore save me from a wicked musician, from a musician who is not proper, whose song is not solely for the sake of Hashem to glorify and exalt His Name, blessed be He. And just as Isaiah said to Hezekiah, "Sing to Hashem," and Hezekiah answered him, "This is already known throughout the earth," and thus he lost the aspect of Mashiach, and since then this aspect has not returned, as Rabbi Hillel says, "They already consumed it in the days of Hezekiah," meaning that all the miracles that Hashem performed in the days of Hezekiah He will not repeat again, because the Jewish people did not sing a song over the downfall of Sennacherib, who came with two hundred and sixty thousand myriads minus one, which is two billion six hundred million minus one. For only through a kosher musician and kosher melodies is it possible to hear this angel.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to be like Deborah the prophetess, as it is said, "And Deborah 900 sang 217 and Barak 302 son of 52 Abinoam" 179 = 1650. And through this, may there rest upon me "the spirit of wisdom and understanding, a spirit of counsel and might, a spirit of knowledge and fear of Hashem" = 1650. And may the very essence of the soul of our holy and awesome Rebbe become impregnated within me, whose soul was from the hidden 71 light 212 of the act of 415 creation 913 = 1941. May I merit wealth like Rothschild, as it is said, "The jar of 24 flour 153 was not 31 exhausted 455, and the jug of 584 oil 395 did not 31 lack" 268 = 1941, "And Joseph stored up grain like the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number."

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to hear the song of the trees, and the song of the angel who has 1000 heads, and each head 1000 mouths, and each mouth a thousand voices, and each voice a thousand melodies. And about this it is said, "The meadows are clothed with flocks, and the valleys are covered with grain; they shout for joy, they also sing" (Psalms 65:14). When do the ears of grain sing? In Nissan. Rashi explains: 'They shout for joy, they also sing in Nissan, when the time of the harvest arrives in Nissan, and the wind blows through the ears of grain, and the ears of grain knock against each other, and they appear as if they are singing a song.' For according to Rabbi Yehoshua, it was said to Adam HaRishon on the 1st of Nissan, "From every tree of the garden you may surely eat," and Eve squeezed grapes and gave them to him, for 'grapes' (Anavim) has the numerical value of 'heel' (Akev), and one squeezes grapes with the heel, and Jacob, who through the letter Yud rectifies the heel, and therefore "His hand holding onto the heel of Esau."

Master of the Universe, grant me solely to praise and give thanks, and to say every single day "Mizmor LeSodah" (A Psalm of Thanksgiving), for Chanukah is the holiday of thanksgiving, and from the moment of the new moon of the month of Kislev, the lights of Chanukah begin to descend, the lights of thanksgiving, to thank and praise You endlessly, even for trivial things. As our Rebbe told Rabbi Nasan to pray even for a button, 'And were our mouths filled with song as the sea, and our tongues with ringing praise as its roaring waves, and our lips with praise like the wide expanse of the firmament, and our eyes shining like the sun and the moon, and our hands spread out like the eagles of the sky, and our feet swift as deer,' we will only praise and glorify day and night = 177. And through this we will merit to enter with our bodies into the Garden of Eden = 177, like Serach 508 daughter of 402 Asher 501 = 1411, and Bisyah the daughter of Pharaoh who brought the circumcised Moses into Pharaoh's house and feared nothing, not Pharaoh, nor his magicians, nor her servants, and bound herself for the sanctification of the Name. In this merit, she merited to enter with her body into the Garden of Eden, and she converted, and she would sing to Hashem day 96 and night 81 = 177 at every moment and second, and say the Hallel in songs and praises to Hashem with all strength and might. And through this she entered with her body into the Garden of Eden, and subdued the 11 chieftains of Esau, and the verse was fulfilled in her, "And it was turned about, that the Jews 80 themselves 50 had rule 355 over those who hated them" 414 = 1411. And in this merit may we too merit, to thank, sing, and praise Hashem day and night = 177 all year round, and especially on Chanukah, for twice Chanukah 89 + 89 = 178, Garden of Eden = 177 + Hashem is One = 178.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me to guard my eyes, and grant me to pour out oceans of tears before You. Grant us to know word by word, letter by letter, with broad proficiency and deep analysis, the first 141 chapter 380 of Bava Basra 607 = 1128. And in this merit, impregnate within me the secret of the soul of Noah who lived 950 years, and Seth who lived 912 years, in the secret of "He has declared to His people the power 28 of His works, to give them the heritage of the nations," with the souls of Mashiach 358 ben 52 Joseph 156, Mashiach 358 ben 52 David 24 = 1028, the secret of 'The partners who wished to build a partition in a courtyard', the initials of the soul of Solomon, building the wall in the middle, which is the Western Wall that David and Solomon built, and it was not destroyed and will never be destroyed. May I merit to learn Torah day 96 and night 81 = 177, and in this merit to enter with my body into the Garden of 53 Eden 124 = 177. May I merit to be a mighty warrior, strong and brave, like Samson 696 the mighty 216 = 912, and never to fall asleep during study ever. Please Hashem, 'For there is nothing 61 hidden 710 from before 97 Your eyes' 160 = 1028, grant me to do complete teshuvah before You for all my blemishes of the covenant, and for everything I have sinned before You from the day I gained awareness until now. In this merit, may I merit the light of Hashem, the light of Your face, as it is said, "But the path of 209 the righteous 254 is like the light of 227 dawn 58, shining 61 ever brighter 213 = 1228 until the full light of day." Please Hashem, "He establishes 120 the world 432 by His wisdom" 476 = 1028, grant me to know all Your holy and awesome Names, especially the Name of M"B and A"B, as it is said, "But by My Name 356 Hashem 26 I did not 31 make Myself known 540 to them" 75 = 1028, only to Moses. And in this merit, 'We give thanks 100 to You and praise Your glorious Name,' and may I merit, Father of joy 28, to be a veteran 516 disciple 484 = 1128 of our holy and awesome Rebbe, and to know all of Shas, Likutey Moharan, by heart, word for word, letter by letter, with broad proficiency and deep analysis. All the days of my life I will serve You with a flame 344 of fire 306 = 650, a flaming fire day and night without stopping for a moment or a second, and through this the verse will be fulfilled in me: "Then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute shall sing 650 for joy." May I merit to be a veteran disciple of our holy and awesome Rebbe, and to learn eighteen hours a day, without stopping for a moment or a second, day 96 and night 81 = 177. And through this, may I merit to enter with my body into the Garden of 53 Eden 124 = 177, and may I always merit faith 162 and trust 75 = 177, and never worry about money. In this merit, may I merit to sing and chant before You all the days of my life, without stopping for a moment or a second, as it is said, "Sing 516 to Him 36, play music to Him 36, speak 324 = 912 of all His wonders."

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, send me a complete healing from Heaven in the merit of Queen Esther, from whom come all healings [complete 370 healing 291 = 661 = Esther = 661], for from Queen Esther all healings are drawn, because she is "Kallos Moshe" (the brides of Moses), the inner point of the Jewish people, from which come all healings and all salvations, for she is the point of the Crown (Keter), the innermost of the inner, the point of Atik Yomin, the secret of Shoshana (Rose) = Esther = 661, which is the rose of healing, the secret of Ayin (Nothingness), in the secret of the secret of Keter, the secret of the melodies from which come all healings, the secret of 'I will sing 248 praises' 372 = 620, the secret of Keter = 620 from which come all healings for all the 248 limbs and 365 sinews, by virtue of the fact that all my days I will solely sing songs and praises to You, so that through 'I will sing' (Azamer) You will send a complete healing to all my 365 sinews and 248 limbs, which has the numerical value of Azamer: Azamer = 248 limbs = 248.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, please, One Hashem = 1, draw down 365 upon me 110 the 401 pure 103 lights of the Tzachtzachos 602, in the merit of David 14 = 2198 the King, peace be upon him. Please, my Father 13, heal my leg 233, and through this may I merit the light of 207 the seven 772 days of 60 creation 913 = 2198. Please, Living 18 and Enduring, 'Creator of 209 healings 293, awesome in 257 praises 841, causing salvations to sprout' 188 = 2998, grant me a complete healing, and heal my leg in the blink of an eye, and then I will sing and chant to You 'concerning 100 the songs 916 and praises of 1122 David 14 son of 52 Jesse 310, Your servant 96 Your anointed' 378 = 2998.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, grant me 87 to burn 302 toward You 61 with a flaming 42 fire 301 constantly, day 96 and night 81 = 970.

And then 8 I will merit to know that 'You 406 are the first 557 = 971 and You are the last'. And in this merit, what is said will be fulfilled in me: "And the Children of 62 Israel 541 went out 107 with a high 245 hand" 16 = 971.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, just as You forgave Hannah, who in her previous incarnation was 'Tzillah', and You forgave her for all her sins, so may it be Your will that all the terrible suffering I have gone through until now will be an end and a conclusion to all my troubles and sufferings, and to everything I have sinned in this incarnation and in previous incarnations. And just as You granted Hannah a son like Samuel, who was equal to Moses and Aaron, and the Megaleh Amukos (Ofen 39) says he was greater than Moses and Aaron, and he is the one who completed everything that Moses and Aaron did not manage in their lifetimes, so too grant me sons like Samuel the prophet who will bring the entire Jewish people back in teshuvah, and will merit to pray and learn Torah with tremendous devotion in every single letter, until through the holy letters of Torah and prayer they will merit to awaken all the roots of the souls of the entire Jewish people, and will merit to bring the entire world back in teshuvah.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, just as You granted Miriam the prophetess to go out with tambourines and dances, with song and melody, and from then on she always walked at the head of the camp [Yalkut Shimoni Teitzei 937] and the banners followed her, so too grant me from now and forever, all the days of my life, only to go out with tambourines and dances, with song and melody for Your glory.

Master of the Universe, Mighty over all the mighty, Victor over all the victors, grant me to reveal the sources of the wellsprings of eternity, "a well of living water," well of living water + 1 = Nachman ben Feiga = 294. Grant me to reveal the melody that plays on 72 strings, the melody that bursts forth from all of creation, from all the grasses, from all the cyclamens and anemones, from all the poppies and daffodils, from all the lilies and roses.

May I, my offspring, and the offspring of my offspring always merit to live in Jerusalem forever, "Until 74 her righteousness 199 goes forth 109 as brightness 78, and her salvation 797 burns as a flaming torch 144" 282 = 1675.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, standing here by the awesome and holy tziyun of {in the merit of} Judah the son of Jacob, who merited that King David, peace be upon him, came from him, and King Solomon who built the Holy Temple, and he is the one who will merit that Mashiach ben David will come from his loins, in the merit of the humility and lowliness which he attained more than the rest of the brothers and confessed all his sins, and therefore merited that Mashiach ben David will come from him, who is the one who atones for all sins, iniquities, and transgressions. So too, grant me the merit to confess all my sins and transgressions at every moment and second, and to merit teshuvah out of love, and through this all my sins, iniquities, and transgressions will be forgiven, and everything will be transformed into merits by the power of the teshuvah out of love that I will merit to do now here on the holy and awesome tziyun of {in the merit of} Judah the son of Jacob, who is named after thanksgiving and confession (Hoda'ah and Vidui).
